whats funny is even though so many free agents have signed already, there's still some left that could help us contend this yr. I still think there's no way we contend this yr, but just for fun, if we were to sign Bourn to a 3 yr deal and Delmon Young to maybe a 2 or 3 yr deal, plus Marcum.... we'd have a solid team this yr. Virtually no chance of that happening though.

Well, yes. I'll say what was bad about it and what could've been done to make it better.

Don't bash others, their ideas, and what they do when you have no idea what you're doing yourself, considering all you've done is complain about something you don't know how to fix yourself.

That's not what I asked, do you go round lecturing people that they should do a better job than the Director?

Your argument is childish, it negates any critique with the old 'Could you do better?' line, were we to extend that to every sphere of life we would be unable to complain about anything from, the latest novel, to a cup of coffee, a football team or anything.

The whole premise is ridiculous, I do not possess anything like the information that SA does.

You may live in a world where you just accept what you're given, I do not.

Signing Bourne would cause the Mets to lose the #11 pick in the draft. I'm really curious what happens to Bourne. No one seems to want to bite and lose the pick, or pay the money I guess.

“The Wilpons and Mr. Saul Katz — the people who say they don’t care about the team are sorely misguided,” Ojeda told the newspaper. “These are the biggest Mets fans you will meet."

When the person goes," OHHH THAT DIRECTOR AND THAT MOVIE WERE SO BAD! THAT WAS TERRIBLE! OH MY GOD A MONKEY COULD DO A BETTER JOB!!!" the yes, I'd ask why do you say that. And I hope they wouldn't respond with, "Well that's not my job," because that's just plain ignorant.

You still haven't answered on what you would do, yet you still think you're ideas are the greatest and Sandy, the rest of the Mets' FO, and board members on here are idiots. When asked, you simply avoid the question because you know that there's nothing that you, me, Sandy, or anybody else could do with what Sandy has been given.

Both David Wright and R.A. Dickey stated they were totally sold on SA's plan for the future of the Mets. It's slightly amusing and a little sad that trading RA turned out to be part of the plan, but the plan is what it is.

Pay me $150 million and I'd be totally sold on the "plan" too. Not that i would actually care what the "plan" was, as long as the checks didn't bounce.

It's slightly amusing that anyone would think Wright would have turned down $150 million if he didn't like "SA's plan."

Listen you're entitled to keep giving the Mets and SA free passes for failing to improve the team, I won't though. If you're more comfortable with the notion that everything is hunky dory and we're on the right track and we could not be doing anything better then great.

There's no need to keep exaggerating either, just because I refuse to toe the party line.

The notion that a 74 win team could not in any way have improved itself this Winter is one that is not even worth consideration, and that's the basic premise of all the people who have been totally entranced by Sandy Alderson.

Why would I come up with alternative short plan, when the FO doesn't have one? they have just punted next season, they have thrown it on the bonfire. But that's fine with you all you Alderson junkies...

I have been hearing that this teams fortunes would improve every year since at least and including 2011, and what's happened? just more wasted years.
